notes
A reggae tune per Music & Media's review, calling it 'a sure winner'; bass and organ-style keys carry the reggae skank. A keys texture on "Mr. Battyman" sits on the SY77/Wavestation rig, doubling the chord changes with a warmer, slower-moving voice than the lead. The envelope is kept snappy to match the group's driving four-on-the-floor tempo.
